Irena Kazazić (born 1972) is a Slovenian painter and writer of a Serbian descend.

Kazazić was born in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. She has graduated in 2003 by prof. Mladen Jernejc at the university for painting and drawing.

She has built her personal image with the paintings of human legs inside shoes. The stories of the legs were painted very realistic. Visible were the details of the socks and gloves, which were leaning towards the shoes. Intimacy and stories are the tools for creating her art. Iconography is personal, it looks like her diary is being written on the walls. Her artistic language is inspired by the pop art of the 1980s. She also exhibits on SloART website.

Kazazić was present on several art exhibitions in Europe and the United States.
